i picked this off a big footy thread:

Interesting take outs is Sydney has 2nd highest sponsorship in AFL, yet Giants have much higher assets than Swans (what?).
Other than that, what struck me is that GWS and Suns arent that far off the mark financially. Costing only $5m more than @@@@kicker melbourne clubs.
